Christopher Tin – The Drop That Contained the Sea (2014/2020) [FLAC 24bit/96kHz]

The Drop That Contained the Sea is a song cycle sung in 10 languages, weaving together poems and prayers about water from different cultures. It has a unique concept: it follows a single drop of water as it weaves its way through the world, from clouds to snow, rivers to oceans, culminating in an explosive rainmaking prayer. It’s a musical travelogue of vocal traditions from around the world, including Bulgarian women’s choirs, African gospel, Portuguese fado, Mongolian throat singing, and more–-all with a thrilling orchestral accompaniment.

“The message [of the album] is that, essentially, in the coming century water, and water management, is going to be the most important global issue to all people and across all countries,” Tin says, “Between melting Antarctic ice sheets and rising ocean levels and droughts and increased devastation from hurricanes and so forth, water is literally going to shape the way we draw our maps.” (Christopher Tin, Public Radio International)
